Well said! There's an awful lot of mumbo-jumbo out there; you really have to invest a lot of time and care in order to sort out the actual gold nuggets of wisdom from all the garbage.
Re-steemed.
Yes, there is an alarming volume of motivational bullshit, out there. Most of it serves little purpose other than to trap people in different trances than they might already be trapped in.
I doubt there are any "global" answers, since people all bring their own unique lenses of perception to the table, created by their own unique paths through life. Perhaps the closest to such a thing would be "Don't be shitty!" which I tell quite a few of my clients when they want to know what they "should do."
Without a doubt, there is "light" and "dark," and everyone must be open to that. However, I believe we do have a choice, in terms of where we focus our attention... as Henry Ford observed — long before there was New Age Bullshit in the world — "Whether you believe you'll succeed or fail, chances are you're right!" That's my primary "plug" for focusing on the positive.
Bright Blessings!
Absolutely the key to self-help is enduring life and making the best of what you have.
You have to help yourself no one else can

The world needs more writtings like this that cut through the bullshit. I do believe there is an ever growing craving for hard to read but freeing authentic words. I like this shit. Thanks.
I was sitting on an armchair which, because it wanted to show me its process of decay, did not collapse under me in a hundred years but in ten minutes and I, not in being but always in becoming, understood that this happens not only to the armchair, but also to the table, which "tables", the tree, which "apples", just like our earth, which "peoples" (took this from Alan Watts).
When shit happens it does it for the purpose of being followed by joy. You wouldn't recognize good things if there weren't also the miserable ones.
You can react to every single one but you could also wait and see. While doing your thing to protect, to soothe, to care for what you think is to be cared for.
It's good that you have doubts. Only the insane are doubtless.
If you weren't all the way in Canada, I'd seriously bake you some cookies. Or have my wife bake you some cookies.
